Jessy
13-year-old Jessy can hardly remember that her father Miro used to be an important part of her life. His unexpected return after seven years in prison and his intrusion into the safe space she and her mother have built severely disrupts their symbiotic relationship. Forced to deal with this stranger to her, Jessy increasingly trusts Miro. She learns to open up and set new boundaries. Then she meets Max, who strengthens her urge for freedom. Stirred up by new relationships and feelings, she begins to listen to herself and enjoys a sense of independence.
